Video: Gettin' jiggy with Surface, Al Roker

What do you get when you cross a music-mixing Microsoft Surface with a sleep-deprived Al Roker? Answer: Pure comedy gold. Video after the break, skip to the 48-second mark to hear DJ A.R. do his thang.

Bonus: check out the last 10 seconds to hear him compare a drunken Ann Coulter to Popeye's Olive Oyl.

He's... normal.

[yuriythebest Posted Jan 9th 2009 3:20PM]

right- that's some good reporting

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 9th 2009 3:31PM]

That's Olive Oyl, unless you're actually talking about the cooking ingredient.

If I ever get the chance to do Jell-O shooters with Al, I am not passing it up.

Did he really say "Smaller is bigger... that one's for you, Willie." on live TV?

Does he realize that Willie is slang for penis?

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 9th 2009 8:11PM]

I'm sure he does, he was just too sleep deprived/drunk to realize it beforehand.

Genius!!

Hahahaha, that video's great. DJing and drunkenness aside, I really liked this bit:
"that's a cool device, I'm not sure exactly how that's gonna help folks at home if they get one of those"
"I don't know either"
Sums up my thoughts on Surface nicely...a fun novelty with way too much hype behind it.

Just like Barack Obama ;-)

Saw it live...it was hilarious. Glad someone tipped you guys to it. I'm surprised MS hasn't flooded MSNBC sets with the surface yet. An

"Smaller is bigger."

C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!!!

If I wanted Rose Parade-like commentary on technology, I would've hired the much, much funnier Fred Willard and have him bust out all *Best in Show* style. Nice try, Al. =P

I would pay good money to see Ann Coulter make Al Roker her bitch, over a bottle of vodka.

[McGuirk Posted Jan 10th 2009 12:35AM]

Al Roker is terrible. I hope he gets a seizure from watching Don Imus on TV.

That was fun :)
